Resort Wear, Try Anywhere!

We are a little less than 3 months away from the premiere of Spring 2014 collections at fashion week. Do you need something to hold you over until then? 
Perfect - because Resort 2014 collections are OUT! 
Resort collections can be somewhat confusing though... Is it just a beachwear collection as the name suggests? It was initially a collection designed for the wealthy to wear on their mid-winter resort vacations, but has now shifted as a year-round seasonal trend for us all.
These inter-season collections mix functionality with fashion - containing everything from bathing suits to formal gowns, and basing most of their looks on nautical influences. So, with that, we present you the hottest trends from Resort 2014!

Sheer Overlays
Dior, Vera Wang, Bottega Veneta

Peek-a-boo! We've been seeing a lot of sheer fabrics throughout the past few seasons. Resort 2014 is continuing the trend with these see-through looks. The high-necklines and longer hems give these designs a tasteful sophistication. 

Cropped
Versace, Jason Wu, Dior

Have you been killing yourself with crunches to obtain sculpted abs? These crop top ensembles are perfect to show off all of your hard work. 

Mix & Match
Suno, See by Chloé, Jean Paul Gaultier

Who would have guessed that snakeskin and floral prints would go well together? Print mixing and matching is no new thing, but the Resort 2014 collections revived this look with a dash of unconventional freshness. 

Stripes
Thakoon, Gucci, Rachel Zoe

Stripes are back! They're bold and adventurous; they're horizontal, vertical, and curved; they're black and white, clashing colors, and mixed prints. There are so many different ways to wear stripes this season!

Inspired!? Us too... now get shopping Drobers!

Summer Style: Fun and Function

Sorry spring, summer is here, and here to stay.  For any fashionista it's imperative to stay stylish and functional: it's a balance we all need to keep. Obviously, MyDROBE is here to keep you practical and gorgeous, and we've had our eye on  a couple of designers who are combining form and function to keep you chic and cool at the same time.


There's a new trend going around, and it's quite "clear" what it is. Eh eh, see what we did there? Check out some of these styles by Prada and Charlotte Olympia.



        
Sheer tops are also a great way to stay a step in front of the heat, while looking sexy and stylish at the same time. Here are some great "peekaboo" looks by Christopher Kane.



And who doesn't love a good cutout to look great and keep cool.
These beautiful Reiss pumps feature some cutouts.


Then you have these stunning cut out dresses by Stella McCartney.



Models aren't the only ones wearing Stella McCartney either, take a look at some of your favorite celebrities rockin' her style. From left to right, Stella herself, Miranda Kerr, and Jamma Mays.

Shrunk Love for Punk? Met Gala 2013: Punk Eats Beauty

What happens when punk meets beauty? 
Some extravagant sassiness for sure---for better or worse. Last night the Met went saucy with its annual Met Gala, kick starting their new exhibition "Punk: Chaos to Culture" on view from May 9th until August 4th. 
MyDROBE picks out some incredible looks from the night, some treading on the threshold of "is this punk?" Thought to chew on: what is punk, anyway?


Coco Rocha wears Emanuel Ungaro

Panther gone Punk-ther? And it slits too.

Kim Kardashian wears Riccardo Tisci

Clearly there was another party going on.

Madonna wears Givenchy and tots in Casadei

Addams family gone punk?

Marc Jacobs wears Comme des Garçons and Sofia Coppola wears Marc by Marc Jacobs, of course

Kristen Stewart wears Stella McCartney

...and some looks just seem to truly redefine and explore how incredible punk can be.

Cara Delevingne is dashing in shocking Burberry

Killer hair + the classic countless studs.


Anne Hathaway wears Valentino

Who knew Anne Hathaway could be so punk? Our very own little chameleon...


Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in a Gucci Fall 2013 gown

Who would've thought pairing olive silk fringes with lace could be pulled off so flawlessly?

Miranda Kerr kills it in Michael Kors

Clever crucifix. Piercing silver nails. Cunning.

Taylor Swift looking spicy in J.Mendel

Will punk stay around long enough for us to figure out its possibilities? We say let's do it.

And that's right Miley, we didn't feel the need to include you... we get it - you're punk.

No Pain, No Gain... Or Maybe Not?


While we all can't be Carrie Bradshaw, one would hope we would be able to walk and/or run in heels as gracefully as she did. Unfortunately this isn't HBO and most of us can't walk gracefully in heels period.  Louboutins and Manolo Blahnik's may match your favorite DVF dress, but they don't always go with the Manhattan terrain.  

Style icon and fashion editor Giovanna Battaglia
Fashion has found a beautiful and girly solution to every woman's problem of sacrificing grace for height; kitten heels. Yes, I said kitten heels. Before you run screaming, think Marc Jacobs, Miuccia Prada, and Nicholas Kirkwood. Think mod, chic, and comfortable. More importantly, think about how your feet are going to feel 10 years from now.


Believe it or not kitten heels are back and they are adorable, proving miracles really do happen! So forget what you thought you knew and try to block out some of that horrifying imagery. Take a deep breath and take in this season's hottest heels under 2 inches. Ladies leave those off-white New Balances at home, your daily commute doesn't have to hurt anymore!
